Abstrakt: The aim of this study is to eveluate levels of advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) which are thought to increase in the polyp tissue and superoxide dismutase (SOD), an antioxidant enzyme, with using specthrophotometry in polyp tissue and healthy mucosa. 30 nasal polyp patients without inflammatory disease except for nasal polyposis were included in the study. The control group consisted of 18 patients who did not have allergy, asthma, inflammatory and granulomatous disease and planned surgery due to septum deviation and concha hypertrophy. AOPP and SOD tissue levels were measured by spectrophotometry in polyp tissue specimens taken from patients with nasal polyps and concha samples taken from patients in the control group. The mean AOPP tissue level of patients in the nasal polyposis group was statistically significantly higher than the control group. (p < 0.05). The mean SOD activity level was significantly lower in the nasal polyposis group than the control group. (p < 0.05) As a result of this study, high AOPP levels in polyp tissue and low SOD levels in polyp tissue compared to healthy nasal mucosa, oxidative stress plays an important role in nasal polyp development.
